Similar to our article Average Page Load Times for 2018 , we’ll go over the averages for metrics and help you determine if your site is faster or slower than average. As you know, there are many metrics that determine a website’s page speed, and we can’t look at just one of them to determine how performant our site is.

Some opinions claim that “Benchmarks are meaningless”, “benchmarks are irrelevant” or “benchmarks are nothing like your real applications” However for others “Benchmarks matter,” as they “account for the processing architecture and speed, memory, storage subsystems and the database engine.”

HammerDB is a software application for database benchmarking. HammerDB has graphical and command line interfaces for the Windows and Linux operating systems. Databases are highly sophisticated software, and to design and run a fair benchmark workload is a complex undertaking. The NOPM Metric. Derived Workloads.

All of the SPECfp_rate2000 results were downloaded from www.spec.org, the results were sorted by processor type, and “peak floating-point operations per cycle” was manually added for each processor type. This includes all architectures, all compilers, all operating systems, and all system configurations.

GHz 4th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors (code-named Sapphire Rapids) Up to 20% higher compute performance than z1d instances Up to 50 Gbps of networking speed Up to 40 Gbps of bandwidth to the Amazon Elastic Block Store (EBS) We can also verify these capabilities by running some simple benchmarks on the different subsystems.

The primary metric for memory bandwidth in multicore processors is that maximum sustained performance when using many cores. This metric is interesting because we don’t always have the luxury of parallelizing every application we run, and our operating systems almost always process each call (e.g., Stay tuned!

For RDS products, shell access to the underlying operating system is disabled, and access to MySQL user accounts with the “SUPER” privilege isn’t allowed. To configure MySQL variables or manage users, Amazon RDS provides specific parameter groups, APIs, and other special system procedures which are used.

SQL Server always checks I/O completion status for any operating system error conditions and proper data transfer size and then handles errors appropriately. Torn pages generally arise after system outages where the subsystem does not complete the entire 8-KB I/O request. This utility is located on the Microsoft Web site.

We use Grafana/Nagios/Kibana, internal tools and other tools to monitor performance for other parts of the system. Which web server do you use? Nginx, HAproxy. Which database do you use?
